    Hello,

    Don't ever really know what to say in these thing. I live on the slightly sunny, mostly rainy defiantly windy Isle of Man, been on my allotment since April/May last year and am looking forward to this new growing year. I have a lovely small allotment with raised beds, have already got garlic and onion sets in, fruit bushes and not enough strawberry plants lol.

    I'm also interested in self-sufficiency and preserving the harvest type of thing.

    Hoping to get to know a lot of like-minded people and learn new ways of growing/preserving and also to learn what I’m supposed to do, going into all this very blind and have no clue!!

                            Welcome to the vine MOW. Look forward to hearing how your growing conditions may differ from ours on the mainland.
